Joel Solymosi
@joelsolymosi
Senior software engineer who ships revenue-critical systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer with a track record of building revenue-critical systems and scaling recurring revenue. I focus on delivering high-impact features, driving profitable growth, and architecting resilient infrastructure.
At Hugo Insurance I built core systems processing $100M+ annual premiums for 300,000 policyholders and played an instrumental role in growing MRR from $1M to $10M by improving LTV-to-CAC economics. I also led integrations with marketplaces and third-party platforms to optimize lead acquisition and channel ROI.
Previously, as VP of Engineering at GYANT I established a high-velocity engineering culture, built HIPAA-compliant EHR and treatment systems, scaled Kubernetes infrastructure to millions of daily requests, and significantly reduced content creation time with tooling improvements.
I founded and operate an educational product serving 60,000+ users and generating recurring revenue, owning product strategy, development, marketing, and operations. I bring an owner mindset, strong cross-functional collaboration, and deep technical breadth across backend, frontend, and infrastructure.
